Summary: A way to specify no ref parameter for value parameters
Product: D
Version: 1.035
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: DMD
AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com

When having methods with value ref/out/inout parameters, it is not possible to
say that you don't want to pass one in the same manner that you can pass null
for reference/pointer types.
The workaround
foo(int* bar)
does of course work, but it is very unfortunate in these SafeD times that
pointers must be used.
